Gourfein, however, goestoo far when he ascribes to the Pneumobacillus a power of producing an ulcus serpensequal to that of the Pneumococcus, and states that all the pyogenic organismsproduce the same clinical appearances in the cornea (cf. chapter on Keratitis). The full records show that the Pneumobacillus has been found a few times in thecontents of chalazia (Priouzeau, Maklakow ; cf. section on Chalazion). Wopfnerfound it in the interior of the eye in metastatic ophthalmia resulting from pneumonia; Pergens found it in a metastatic^orbital Fig. 47.—Friedlanders Pneumobacillus, AgarCulture, from a Case of Dacryocystitis. The even separation of the bacilli is due to the mucousmaterial between (confluent capsules). Where theheat has been excessive, clear spaces have been formedby retraction. 246 BACTERIOLOGY OF THE EYE The 1neumobacilli when grown were very pyogenic when tested on animals, asthe earlier experiments of Perles had shown.
